Question
How much rice noodles should a 6-month-old baby consume?
Answer
When a 6-month-old baby begins to introduce complementary foods, it is recommended to start with egg yolks. The egg yolk can first be made into a powder and mixed with boiling water before being given to the baby; then it can be gradually changed to an egg yolk porridge. By 7 or 8 months old, the baby can start eating steamed eggs. In terms of rice noodles intake, the egg yolk powder can be mixed with the rice noodles for the baby to eat. For the medication ‘Man Yan Shu Leng Granules,’ children under 8 years old can take a reduced dose, twice a day, with half a packet each time, dissolved in 100 milliliters of water; children over 8 years old can take the dosage as per adults.
